Montenegro in a day! Wow…. - Ilir was our fantastic guide on our full day tour of Montenegro, showing us sights we would have not been able to visit without his knowledge and expertise of both Albania and Montenegro. From collection to drop off at our hotel we were made to feel like we were traveling with a friend, with great local stories, fun facts, historical info on the areas we visited and photo opportunities that were out of this world. This has to be one of the best tours we have taken, with an added bonus of Ilir‘s keen eye for photography, capturing instagram style shots for us to cherish in years to come.
